There is a thousand, but I find this Pretty interesting myself
The conclusion has absolutely nothing to do with what you previously wrote ...
Did you read it all? Or just skip to the conclusion?
The introduction had great links with their why they are doing this study.
I read it. The conclusion tells what the study learned, and it has absolutely sfa to do with the original statement.
Maybe try and stay on topic instead of throwing shit around hoping some will stick.
Please read the entire thing. You would see how it was on topic if you did, that’s how I know you haven’t.

That's about as straightforward and easy to understand as it can possibly be. Many times Women's Olympic Finalists wouldn't qualify for the boys high school varsity team!
And again, although that is interesting it still doesn't show the numbers that were quoted ...
I'm not impugning anyone in any way with this comment but the very best biologically female athletes in the world, literal World Record setting Olympians, in many cases aren't fast enough to compete with High School boys.
This is an even worse outcome than "Top 10% female athletes..." because this is the top 1% of female athletes, the crème de la crème, compared to the top *under age male *athletes.
There's a lot of events, such as 100m to 800m sprints, where the female Olympians not only lose they can't even qualify for the race!
In other events, swimming in particular, the biologically female Olympic Champions set World Record times...that were beaten by High School Boys.
You can follow the links to the raw data and do the math yourself if you want a precision answer but there's no real question that the Top 10% of biologically female athletes, the Olympians, would lose to the Top 10% of biologically male athletes 80% of the time or more.
I'm going to quote what you wrote to me on another post: "If you don’t understand, far be it from to educate you.
Go read a book."
The person showed you a citation that shows in track and field the top 0.1% (not 10%) of women would get 6 medals vs the top highschool boys (who are outside the top 10% of men) getting 81 medals. That's young boys beating the absolute best women 93% of the time. In swimming it was worse: 1 medal vs 47 or 98%. In soccer, the US Women's National Team, arguably the best of the best women's team in the world, would regularly lose to highschool boys teams. I'm sure there are some sports where the gulf is smaller, but it's going to be rare.
